Interesting idea.

I'm not crazy about the idea of the 5th team / second wildcard in each league, 
personally. But the 5-team deal would
certainly ensure that the best 5 teams from each league are in the play-offs. 
But may not be a dramatic change - if
this system had been in place last year, the playoff teams would have been -

AL

Rays
Yankees
Twins
Rangers
Sox

NL

Phillies
Giants
Braves
Reds
Padres

Be interesting to see how they slot teams with identical records (like Braves - 
Reds in 2010).
